Hobby— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more natural and grammatical: give a clear topic sentence, correct tense and phrasing, avoid unnecessary sentences, and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. For example, say how often you travel or what you like about New York. Keep answers under five sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy traveling. My favorite city is New York because I love its museums and vibrant streets. For example, I visited three times over the past four years and spent a lot of time exploring art galleries and food markets.

Sugestão: Answer directly with correct tense and clear details. Use a topic sentence, then one or two specific supporting details linked logically. Correct grammar (use past tense) and be specific about what you drew and why.

Exemplo: Yes, I liked drawing when I was a child. I often drew sweets and cartoons because I enjoyed bright colors, and I would spend hours creating picture books for my family.

Sugestão: The answer is unclear and ungrammatical. Respond directly with a topic sentence stating whether you still have the childhood hobby, then add a supporting detail with a reason or example and a linking word for coherence.

Exemplo: No, not exactly — I don't still draw as much as I used to. However, I still enjoy sketching occasionally, for example when I travel, because it helps me remember places.

Sugestão: Give a clear, grammatical topic sentence and one specific supporting detail using linking words. Correct verb forms and use concise examples of shared hobbies and where they went. Avoid repetition.

Exemplo: Yes, we share a love of traveling. For instance, several family members have been to places like Paris, New York and Malaysia, and we often plan trips together because we all enjoy exploring new cultures.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I do.

The examiner asked 'Do you have any hobbies?' which requires the short form of the auxiliary do (do/does) for present simple, not 'have' as a full verb alone. Using 'I have' is grammatical but the natural short answer is 'Yes, I do.' Suggestion: answer yes/no questions with the appropriate auxiliary verb: 'Yes, I do.'

× I like traveling.

✓ I like traveling.

This sentence is grammatical. 'Traveling' as a gerund after 'like' is correct. No correction needed.

× I've been to New York for four years.

✓ I've been to New York several times over the past four years.

'Been to New York for four years' is ambiguous: 'been to' indicates visits, but 'for four years' suggests continuous presence. If the student means repeated visits, use 'several times over the past four years.' If they meant living there, use 'I lived in New York for four years.' Suggestion: choose 'been to' with 'several times' or 'lived' with 'for four years.'

× I had good time then.

✓ I had a good time then.

The countable noun 'time' in the phrase 'have a good time' requires the indefinite article a. Missing the article makes the sentence ungrammatical. Suggestion: include 'a' in expressions like 'have a good time.'

× To yes, I have drawn a pictures.

✓ Yes, I used to draw pictures.

The student likely attempted to say they drew pictures when they were a child. 'To yes' is incorrect word order; 'used to' expresses past habitual actions. 'Drawn' is a past participle and cannot stand alone here; the correct past form is 'drew' or the expression 'used to draw.' Also 'pictures' is plural without 'a'. Suggestion: say 'Yes, I used to draw pictures.'

× I draw candy, candy and.

✓ I drew pictures of candy and other things.

The original is fragmentary and mixes tenses. For childhood habits, use past tense: 'drew.' Also complete the list: 'candy and other things.' Suggestion: use full clause and past tense: 'I drew pictures of candy and other things.'

× Not just me.

✓ Not really.

The examiner asked 'Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?' The student's reply 'Not just me.' is unclear and ungrammatical in context. 'Not really' or 'No, I don't' are appropriate. Suggestion: respond clearly with 'Not really' or 'No, I don't.'

× I think so.

✓ I think so.

This sentence is acceptable; no correction needed. It correctly expresses uncertainty.

× My family, all my family.

✓ All my family members do.

The fragment 'My family, all my family.' is not a complete clause. To answer the question, use a complete sentence: 'All my family members do.' Suggestion: use a subject and verb: 'All my family members do.'

× Like traveling, they been to Paris and New York and America, Malaysia they enjoyed.

✓ They like traveling; they have been to Paris, New York, the United States, and Malaysia, and they enjoyed those trips.

Multiple errors: 'Like traveling' needs a subject and verb ('They like traveling'). 'They been' lacks the auxiliary 'have' for present perfect ('they have been'). 'America' is better expressed as 'the United States' in this context and requires the definite article. The clause 'Malaysia they enjoyed' is awkward; combine ideas: 'they enjoyed those trips.' Suggestion: use full clauses, correct auxiliaries ('have been'), include articles where needed ('the United States'), and connect ideas with proper punctuation or conjunctions.
